Wow. And to think, they didn't even sign Briggs. Just imagine what General Zod would have penalized them had they actually signed him ...

Where's Easterbrook? What does Matt Walsh know about this?

I look forward to every ESPN talking head spending the next 6 months talking about the 49ers as the Worst. Cheaters. Ever.

I won't hold my breath waiting for that to happen.

Commissioner Clouseau strikes again.





Now, if someone could just explain to me how filming from the sidelines instead of the end zone or the stands is more detrimental to fair play than trying to steal an opponent's best players, I'd really appreciate that.
